Client Testimonial: Alabama Superfund Site

“ISCR technology from Adventus was the EPA approved remedy for both soil and groundwater treatments at our Alabama Superfund Site. The DARAMEND application for pesticides in soil was completed on time, on budget, and with attainment of all performance standards set forth in the Recordof Decision. The EHC applications for chlorinated solvents and pesticides in groundwater has shown to be an effective, long-lasting solution. Following one series of injections, groundwater performance standards have been attained for chlorinated ethenes and ethanes. Pesticide concentrations are approaching their performance standards. The EHC technology was selected after other injectable products had failed to meet performance standards”.

DARAMEND® Biological Treatment for Soil, Sediment and Solid Wastes

DARAMEND® is an advanced biological treatment technology for soil, sediment, and solid wastes contaminated with recalcitrant organic compounds. DARAMEND® technology has been successfully applied to more than 3,600,000 metric tons of soil, sediment, and other wastes contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PCP, phthalates, chlorinated herbicides and pesticides, organic explosive compounds and wood preservatives at a variety of industrial and military sites in the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe. Independent audits conducted by the US EPA and Environment Canada found DARAMEND® to be effective for the treatment of soils at wood preserving sites. DARAMEND® has been successfully applied to soils containing organic explosive compounds at US Navy and Army sites in Virginia, Iowa, New Jersey, Nevada, and Illinois. The technology is uniquely advantageous because it can often be applied without excavation, generates no odors or leachate, and does not result in bulking. The use of DARAMEND® can result in substantial cost savings and shorter remediation schedules compared to traditional bioremediation processes, such as composting.
